My Birthday

Last Sunday I turned 31 years old.  It's kind of weird to think I'm older now than my parents were when they had me and my twin sisters!  I had the best of birthdays, surrounded by the love and care of family and friends here.  Every birthday is better than the one before!  Unlike many, I actually think getting old is fun.  Not the tired, creaky part, but the mature, learning part.  Every year I feel wiser and stronger than the year before.  It could be just a feeling though! Lol.

My husband treated me to a lovely haircut at a lovely salon, with coffee afterwards.  My uncle, aunts, cousins, and adopted grandma made sure we had my favorite food at family lunch after church, gifted me some nice comfy leggings and sweater and a gift card to a favorite restaurant, cleaned my kitchen and house, and wrote in a birthday card "Happy Birthday to TJ's cougar...."  Which is a fair sample of the kind of love that goes on around here.  I am 16 months older than my husband, which he reminds me of on a regular basis. 😂

My sweet Isabella gave me a hug and said "Happy birthday mommy!"  She understands that birthdays are occasions to be remembered, and likes to randomly tell people happy birthday.

It's been a good year.  God is good.  Life is good.  My children are the best.  My husband is the most thoughtful and romantic partner any girl could wish for.  I am thankful!
